Moderator Scott Goldman talks with six-time GRAMMY Award winner, Brandi Carlile, about her acclaimed new memoir, the #1 New York Times Best Seller, Broken Horses. In the book, Carlile takes readers through the events of her life that shaped her very raw art—from her start at a local singing competition where she performed Elton John’s “Honky Cat” in a bedazzled white polyester suit, to her first break opening for Dave Matthews Band, to many sleepless tours over fifteen years and six studio albums, all while raising two children with her wife, Catherine Shepherd. This hard-won success led her to collaborations with personal heroes like Elton John, Dolly Parton, Mavis Staples, Pearl Jam, Tanya Tucker, and Joni Mitchell, as well as her peers in the supergroup The Highwomen, and ultimately to the GRAMMY stage, where she converted millions of viewers into instant fans.
